When you removed the saddle bags you see all the bracketsand mounting hardware support bars. I have indicated them by the black arrows

After the installation of my multi support.They cleaned up the back fender very nicely.

After the Modifications

Look no more clutter, I can still mount the bags and hook on the sissy bar anytime I want, with the modified quick connects. The mounts are right in front of your eyes but, I bet you can't see them. First let me explain what I did, and why I did it.

This was the first step in the transformation of the rear of the bike. I removed all supports,brackets, covers. I had come up with ideas on parts that did the job the older parts did, but were stronger and looked way better doing it.

The first support I made did multiple jobs and was well hidden. The support relocated the license plate, supported the saddlebags and supported the rear of the exhaust. I made it from 3/16 thick stainless steel and milled and drilled it to the final shape you "don't see here", It's behind the fender. As for any part I made, It is buffed to a mirror shine.
